Here they are:

Anne Noa - Sleepless

I'm watching the clock reaching 4:25
You've got me twisting and turning.

I could count the stars.
It didn't get me far.

While the moonbeams are dancing on top of my bed,
I'm wide awake, and I'm dreaming.

I can see your face, but you're half a world away.

I gotta stop wishing ...
But my heart isn't listening!

I'm sleepless
You're leaving me sleepless,
'Cause you're still on my mind
And it's keeping me up at night.
I'm sleepless.

I stare at the wall, now the shades
come alive, from branches outside my window.

As the sky turns red,
All of the monsters fade.

I wanna stop thinking,
But my mind isn't listening.

I'm sleepless
You're leaving me sleepless,
'Cause you're still on my mind
And it's keeping me up at night.
I'm sleepless.

Ohohoh, you've got me spinning.
Ohohoh, you've got me turning.
Ohohoh, it's getting worse each day.

Ohhh. You're still in my head,
I try to forget you...

I'm sleepless
You're leaving me sleepless,
'Cause you're still on my mind
And it's keeping me up at night.
I'm sleepless.

I hear this song several times now, but I can´t change my opinion, that this song is overrated. It sounds like a nursery rhyme. But I know, this song will be in TOP 10 - and I know, tastes are different. Normally I´m a big fan of the Danish entries, but not this year. Sorry.

Goo luck Denmark! I like this song and it's exactly what televoters will call in for, especially with the fortunate starting number I cannot see anything that can stop Denmark to qualify. My prediction is 4 - 6th place in the Semis and probably around 8th place in the Finals!

^I think (and hope!) so too. Denmark was amongst my favourites in 2008 and 2009, but this year they are at the top of my ranking. I feel the entries from Norway and Sweden will be *ahem* popular as well, and Finland might suprise as well, could be a good year for Scandinavia!

One of the most "so called" entries-EVER in the contest. I cannot explain how this is a favorite even to win! In the recent past we saw a...similar song (Switzerland 2009) being foundered in Moscow gathering just 15 points! How can this bubble Coldplay-esque, Keane-esque song conquer Europe? the answer remains a mystery. I have nothing to hate more this year and I'm already preparing my darts...
Sorry Denmark.

I like the a song a lot still. I don't like Danish entries usually (or actually in the last couple of years, none of them appealed to me, but I liked Olsen Brothers and Rollo & The King + Malene and Thomas Thodarson), but this is spot on. I think it will do well.

I just looooove their comments for Sweden.
"He looks like Lena from Aqua...and sings in the same way" :lol:

Great rehearsal ofc. This song is blue but Denmark used blue last year so they tried sth else. I didn't understand the backdrop though, maybe they'll change it? And finally, Tim's shirt was nice.
